Thousands of Birds Spared From Life of Hell

An application to extend a broiler-chicken unit in Worcestershire that we objected to has been refused. This is great news for up to 168,000 chickens who would have been forced into a life of pain and suffering had the plans been approved.

While we celebrate this great victory, we won’t stop fighting until all chickens raised for their flesh – crammed together into huge, dark, filthy ammonia-laden sheds and forced to grow so large so quickly that they become crippled under their own weight – are free from this nightmarish existence.

The best way that you can help end this suffering is to make the compassionate choice to go vegan. Delicious alternatives to most animal-based foods are widely available – including mock chicken and turkey, fake bacon and dairy-free ice cream and cream cheese. The only thing missing is the cruelty. Order your free vegetarian/vegan starter kit today!

wouldnt another alternative be to be really picky about where your meat/dairy products from? there are free range alternatives to most things now, and if you dont want to go vegan, i think this is a viable alternative. really pleased for those chickens. We used to have chickens in the garden, and they were quite happy there, roaming about 300 square foot of garden, just the 4 of them. they loved it. they had a little house that they could shelter in if they wanted, and we only locked them in at night to keep the foxes out. miss them sometimes.
